Hi! In this post I am going to tell you how we can delete unnecessary files created by adwares, malwares or anti adwares.
The problem is that when you try to delete such unnecessary files created you will find an error saying that it cannot be deleted as it is used in some other process. But the good thing we see here is that, when you try to delete, it will show you the error and in addition it will also tell you the process in which the file is used. So the steps are simple:
(1) Try to delete the unnecessary file. It will show an error message.
(2) Note the process in which the file is being used from the error message.
(3) Open Task manager and click on the processes tab.
(4) Find the process name you noted in step (2) and right click on it and end process.
(5) After that delete all those unnecessary files.
And HURRAH! Its done.
Note: Ending any process will show you a message that it may result in unstable system, but don't worry, the necessary processes start automatically after some time and you can even restart the system for all the processes to start again.
For example:
Some unwanted local32spl.dll files were created alongwith various files and folders by some Adwares I my pc. They were used in Print Spooler process (which is printer related process). So I followed the above steps, stopped the Print Spooler process and deleted the files.
My message to you is that if you have a pc and something wrong goes with it then why to go to some service centre. Why not explore the problem yourself and find a solution. And also if something small goes wrong then why to depend on the antivirus, why not understand the problem and solve it manually without any antivirus.
So Good Day and see you in the next post.....:)
